Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Katy are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehab requires at least a 90 day stay and a lot more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which might hang the person up and cause relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Katy who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
